Cassette Kids - Lying Around

"Nothing's gonna happen if you're lying around"

Australia's Cassette Kids is a band I've been meaning to check out for some time now. Based on their description, I knew I'd like them, but for one reason or another I always passed them by. Now I'm kind of addicted to their song Lying Around, a single off their upcoming album. I think the biggest reason I like it is that it reminds me a little of No Doubt when they were first coming out. Lead singer Katrina Noorbergen has a similar pop/punk warble as Gwen Stefani and here the band go for a disco-infused track with plenty of synthesized strings. As you can see from the promo pic, they've also got a similar look. The comparison's not meant to take anything away from the band, though. They stand quite well on their own. And if this and their newest single, Spin (which sounds more like Surferosa actually), is any indication, the album is going to be pretty fantastic.

...Transmissions come in from outposts all over the universe... Unfamiliar melodies stream into our radios... Fronted by colorful aliens with big voices... The music begins to catch on ... It's in our heads and it refuses to leave... And we like it...

I post music on this blog out of love for the artists and in the hope that I can promote the singers and bands that I am so passionate about. If you are (or represent) an artist and would like any content taken down, don't hesitate to email me at the link above and it will be removed immediately.
